Things you see while driving through Middle America

Observations from two trips across the country.


Signs for:
Come see acres of guns
The Testicle Festival (yes really)


Prairie Dog Town, featuring the world's largest prairie dog, a six-legged steer, a live 5-legged cow (I have a feeling it is a cow with an extra leg sewn onto her or something similarly awful)

The world's largest Elvis head. Yup, just the head.

The A-maize-ing Corn palace, made entirely of corn, making use of every possible Maize or corn pun ever invented and more.

Of course Wal-Drug, offering cowboy clothes, gemstone excavation, dinosaur fossils and much more

A convenience store/gas station that also sold wedding jewelry

Lots of vaguely creepy, seemingly pedophilia signs for the LIttle America Hotel, featuring lots of pictures of kids and then lovers embracing

Roads with no names, just letters, such as K or VV

A charming restaurant known as Steak N' Shake

A Jesus-friendly trucker motel
